In simpler form, virtual reality is a 3D image that explores interactively at a computer and the image can be manipulated with the help of keys to give directions or zoom in or out. Augmented reality (AR) is also a form of VR which layers virtual information over live camera feed into headset or smartphone or tablet device.

There is a difference between AR and VR. Augmented Reality is a method by which a real environment is supplemented by computer touch inputs, such as graphics, sound or video.

Augmented reality improves real life with artificial images and adds graphics, while virtual reality replaces the real world with artificial ones. In AR, the user can interact with the real world, but in VR users cannot interact with the real world.

The VR platform is divided into two components including software and hardware. The software segment mainly contains content that is displayed through the HMD, which is a hardware component of the VR.
